Relationship between Water and Soil Pollution in Terrain and Aquatic Systems

Dear Colleagues,

The ecological state of soils, surface, and groundwater in areas subject to anthropogenic impact is one of the most important problems of environmental geochemistry. The study of the interaction of these ecosystem components, the processes of migration, and the accumulation of pollutants has been carried out since the 1970s. A large number of publications consider the fate of pollutants in the soil-water system and show the importance of soils for reducing groundwater pollution in cities, industrial centers, and mining areas. The recent decades show the increased attention to the influence of soils in watersheds on the quality of surface waters. Presently, soil and water pollution has received special attention in connection with the problems of food security and public health. This Special Issue aims at identifying current trends in the study of this problem.
